Stator self destruct 06/07 Dynas

Pulled the primary cover off tonight and just like ya'll are saying the 8 bolts holding the rotor in place were loose around the magnets and had torn up the stator windings and magnets. I also found the 4 screws holding the stator in place were loose. The welded rotor solves the problem but what about the stator screws? Maybe it was all the pounding from the other screws that came out that made them loosen. Has anyone had this problem from the four stator screws and not the 8 rotor screws?
06 Dyna bought new in October 05. 7700 miles.
Now that I'm into it this far what else should be replaced? I've heard something about the inner primary bearing.

Steering Head Washer Problem - Direct me there?
The internet has become a real PITA for dealerships, car dealerships, you name it. Before people didn't have access to this kind of information. I went into my dealer and asked about the steering head washer service bulletin and they told me they had never heard of it. Thanks to this forum I had the service bulletin number and told them to look it up. They found it and they did the work under warranty.
Hey YellowHawk,
Can you supply that service bulletin number for the steering head washer? I keep hearing a "thug" when I hit a good bump or hole (I live in New Orleans) so I checked the steering head for tightness. Seemed fine? Shocks may be bottoming out?
Any help would be appreciated?
Continueing to read about the sator issue.......

Maybe this shoud be in the 'best delaer' thread, but my 07 Bob was in for some warranty work today. No issues with the stator (welded) but since they were into the primary, I asked for a check of the IPB. Inner race replaced without fuss. Signs or wear, nothing catastrophic, but wear nonetheless - they changed it anyway.
Oilslick - it had dowels between the the IP case and tranny ( I remember your previous interest in this).
I love my bike and love the service that I have recieved from my dealer.
Everything is fixable, so hang in there friends, it's only a machine.........
Oh, and I can reccommend Edinburgh Harley Davidson without reservation, my UK chums.

free alternator repair
12600 miles on my 06 DWG and the alternator was ripped apart by loose screws. 2 months out of warranty, and my dealer (Buffalo Harley) repaired it and turned the repair bill into Harley even though it was out of warrannty. Harley agreed to cover the complete repair expense except for a $100 deductable that I had to pay. I can live with that.
